SMY Hohenzollern II was built by AG Vulcan Stettin, it was 120 m long, 14 m wide and 5.6 m deep, and had 9,588 HP.
It was in use as Imperial Yacht from 1893 to July 1914. Emperor Wilhelm II used it on his annual prolonged trips to Norway. In total he spent over four years on board.
At the end of July 1914 it was put out of service in Kiel. The ship became property of the Weimar Republic in 1918, was struck in February of 1920 and scrapped in 1923.
were i a multi-billionaire i would have something like this. maybe i could get on the ballot as President for Life Buckman. after being elected i would do away with airforce one and have a magnificent presidential yacht for travel overseas and a train for going places on land. of course all my friends would be invited to go along. i would be the first let's have a party president.
